Engagement Length

Hello, I am writing a question text in translation.

 

When I make a socket valve utilizing Engagement Lengths, I would like the length displayed in the isometrics to be the length of the entire valve.

 

I would like to know if there is any way to do this.
Currently, we are making them by cutting off the nipple and other parts by the amount of threading, but I am wondering if that is the way they are supposed to be used.

Dear @t-katsutani ,

 

You have to decide if you want to have the pipe lengths on the isometry then you have to live with it.
That is the standard.
Everything else requires extensive changes to your components and settings, which is not impossible but is far from standard.
